For the first time, this book offers qualitative research on the lives and social relationships of older imprisoned women. In-depth interviews with 29 female prisoners in the south-eastern United States show that older women both engage in generative behaviours in prison and also wish to do so upon their release.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e As prisoners continue to age, the US finds itself at a crossroads on prison reform, with potential decarceration beginning with older prisoners. The COVID-19 pandemic has led many to consider how to thrive under difficult circumstances and in stressing the resilience of older incarcerated women, this book envisions what this could look like.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Regina Benedict\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1529231655\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781529231656\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.31d","brand":"Regina Benedict","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46767307882751,"sku":"9781529231656","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_68822001-1dff-49ce-b6f5-cd442022c1c9.jpg?v=1744169438","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/incarceration-and-older-women-regina-benedict-9781529231656","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
